Koyannisquatsi

Koyaanisquatsi is what would be considered an extremely different and unique movie, with its lack of dialogue, characters, plot, and all the other elements that make up the average movie. Many would think this movie has no point to it, that it is just a bunch of scenery accompanied by random music. However, in my opinion, it expresses an element that most movies try to point towards: a theme or moral.
In the first few pictures, it shows red mountainous settings, with the blazing sun heating it all up. Then, it shows a lot of natural, beautiful scenery with rives and lakes. This shows the earth as it was, without humans.
Then, the movie shows many poor people sitting on the street, dirty and hungry. This shows that people have become miserable as they come into being. Soon after this, there were lots of explosions, including the mushroom cloud of a nuclear bomb. This shows the humans destroying the nature that we grew up in. Then, we see houses and building being brought down by explosives, crumbling one after another. This is where we realize that our destroying the nature also results in sacrificing our own achievements.
Then we see crowds in train stations, horse races, showing all the overpopulation of the world. We are destroying Earth every second we live on this planet. In conclusion, this movie is about how the world strikes back when we attack it, in its own feeble ways. However, we have grown so powerful that nature cannot undo us. Therefore, we ourselves must amend for our mistakes
